Jer flips on the mask at 3:45 then heavy welding from 4:25 to last chorus.

Once this gets warmed up Phil's flipflop picking, Jer's firing up the neck, Bob's screamin' like a chick and Brent's hopping on his B3.

The Other One

What is it about Hartford and this reference? Jerry plays Bach’s Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring in Space on 10/15/84 as well. Played it again later this same month in Berkeley.

No brainer! Take a listen and vote your conciousness….

Up tempo wonderful Eyes that has everything great about ‘78 inside, GRobbers right about the janky strumming but I absolutely love whenever Jerry does this throughout the years and love this little interlude too, also I think that’s Donna with a perfectly placed Wheew! On the last verse. Bobby, Phil, Billy, Mick all laying the foundation for Jerry to soar. So worth a listen!

JG back on the SG never fails. 70-71 NFAs blaze the hottest and are my personal taste. Dangerous garage band jammin’ imo - still don’t understand how 4/28/71 is not in the top 10.
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Civic Arena

Criminally low for another killer ‘78 spin on this classic.
